CAROLINA FAITH RIDERS

I am excited to let you know about a new ministry opportunity that is just beginning at Campfield Memorial Baptist Church called the CAROLINA FAITH RIDERS. The Carolina Faith Riders (www.carolinafaithriders.com) is a ministry program within the NC Baptist State Convention that encourages members of Southern Baptist Churches who are also motorcycle enthusiasts to use their love of motorcycles as a tool to become a “Great Commandment Christian, fulfill the Great Commission and glorify God.” The primary focus of Carolina Faith Riders is to reach out to those within the local community who do not know Jesus Christ and who do not attend church.

There are several Carolina Faith Riders chapters in the Carolinas but none in our immediate area. Each chapter is based in and overseen by their local church. Each chapter is to hold to the beliefs and practices of Southern Baptists. Chapters are not limited by the number of members, size or location of the sponsoring church. Members do not need to own or ride a motorcycle in order to be a part of the chapter. However, every member of the local chapter should be a member of or regularly attend a North Carolina Southern Baptist church and profess Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.

The Carolina Faith Riders ministry was neither developed to be in competition with any other motorcycle ministry nor does it intend to attract members away from these ministries. Our intentions are not to draw people away from the church which they may be attending but to work alongside fellow believers in order that we, as a Christian body, might reach the greatest number of people possible with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
